Prophet

Image via Image Comics

Author: Brandon GrahamArtist: VariousPublisher: Image

Prophet is quite simply unlike anything else out there. Guided by artist/writer Brandon Graham, of King City fame, the comic tells the story of John Prophet's battle with the evil Earth Empire and its seemingly endless supply of Prophet clones. Graham took up the property from an old Rob Liefeld comic that had been defunct since the '90s, reinventing the story from the ground up. Though Graham occasionally illustrates the series himself, he often enlists help from many of the industry's best artists for his epic (and epically violent) space tale. If this description sounds bizarre or nonsensical, that's because Prophet is a book you have to experience for yourself to truly understand. But once you're faced with the immensity of Graham's world, it's impossible to look away.
